要了解中世紀的神學﹐千萬不要抱有中世紀是黑暗世紀偏見﹐套用現代人的眼光去檢視中世紀的思想。中世紀的神學只一個中心思想﹐就是教會擁有超越世界的聖神真實性﹐在神聖的社會中領導文化和科學的思想﹐只要記著這一點就可以理解中世紀的所有神學觀念。中世紀的神學想思主要分為三大主流﹕學術主義(scholasticism)﹐神秘主義(mysticism)和聖經主義(biblicism)。這三者在中世紀時並不互相抵觸﹐只不過是解決信仰上的問題時﹐採用不同重點的進路。學術主義架構神學理論﹐神秘主義強調個人靈性的經驗﹐而聖經主義則為前兩者背書。… [...]
Today I went to a friend’s wedding. The wedding follows the typical PMC style, ceremony in CMCC, banquet in Kirin. Somehow almost everyone working in PMC have their banquet in Kirin, including myself. Just like every other wedding,… [...]
回味逝去的童年﹐慨嘆成年的顧慮。 恐怖的是我竟然可以說得出MTV中每一套卡通的名字﹐是不是我小時候看得太多電視呢﹖… [...]
Most people think shooting is a men’s sport, as women don’t usually associate with guns. Today I just learn that women are better natural shooter than men, since women can shoot more accurately. In my shooting club, the best shooter… [...]
今天新聞看見緬甸軍方開槍鎮壓首都仰光的示威﹐令我聯想起六月某天在北京發生的某件事情。緬甸的軍方政府推翻民選政府﹐實行極權統治多年﹐早把國家弄得民不聊生。僧侶發動和平示威爭取民主﹐學生和人民響應上街遊行﹐本來是個很好的改革契機。軍方政府貪戀權力為保政權﹐寧可甘冒被世界各國遣責﹐也要對手無寸鐵的人民開槍鎮壓。世界各國也基於人道理由﹐發出遣責緬甸軍方暴行的聲明﹐可是只是遺責聲明有用嗎﹖… [...]
Today is the mid autumn festival. In Chinese tradition, people suppose to look up the sky tonight and adore the roundness of the moon. To me, today is just a normal work day and then have some church function in the evening. I am not even aware… [...]
This is a speech prepared for the Toastmaster humorous speech contest. A woman walked into a gun shop and said to the shop keeper, “I would like to buy a gun for my husband.” The woman said she don’t know much about guns and ask… [...]
我一向對長劍少女沒有免疫力﹐見了這套「虐殺姬」的預告片便已經想看。這套動畫是六集的OVA短篇﹐由曾繪製Noir和Madlax的Bee Train工作室製作﹐作畫水準有一定的信心保證。雖然這動畫是漫畫改篇﹐但故事性不強的例牌劇情﹐主要賣點還是凌厲的打鬥場面﹐以及主角那身超萌的染血白色禮服的公主造形。… [...]
據說在蘋果日報報社的大堂有三尊銅像﹐代表著香港一直以來賴以成功的自由經濟體系﹐背後的三個位著名經濟學家。第一位是香港六十年代的財政司郭伯偉(John… [...]

Many of us go to all you can eat sushi restaurants. Ordering food could become a headache when the table is too big. There are over hundreds of items in the menu, everyone has different preference, but we only got one ordering sheet. So what… [...]
有七十年歷史﹐坐落在香港灣仔的景賢里﹐大慨是全港僅餘少數具中國特色紅牆綠瓦的建築物。其歷史值價相信沒有任何爭議﹐早應例入法定古蹟受到保護。在上星期業主忽然動工清拆瓦頂彫花﹐相信是趕在建築物列為古蹟前重建﹐以免四億地價見財花水。保育人士固然強烈遣責﹐政府也從善如流把景賢里例為臨時古蹟﹐勒令清拆工程馬上停止進行﹐可惜為事已晚景賢里受到無可挽救的摧殘。… [...]
What is it in the photo? Zoom in a bit closer. It is 426000 old cell phones Americans discard every day. The photo created by Artist Chris Jordan in his Running the Number Series showing at the Paul Kopeikin Gallery in Los Angeles. Chris Jordan… [...]
Joining a book club is one of the best way to force yourself to finish a book, especially those difficult to read non-fictions not writing with the general public in mind. It is like taking a distant course with weekly assigned readings and… [...]
Nothing beats playing golf in a Friday afternoon with free beer during office hour and still get paid. Today is the annual PMC golf tournament. We took the afternoon off from the office to tee of in West Wood Plateau Academy. It is a 9 holes half… [...]
不論在神學或是西方哲學上﹐聖奧古斯丁(St. Augustine of Hippo)也是非重要的一位人物。啟蒙後的大哲學家的思想﹐如笛卡兒﹐黑格爾﹐史賓洛沙等的思想﹐也可以追溯源頭致奧古斯丁的著作。他的神學思想同樣影響深遠﹐差不多奠定日後西方神學所走的道路。他是古典時代的最後一位哲學家﹐亦是中世紀的第一位哲學家。研究基督教神的人﹐絕不能無視奧古斯丁的思想。而要明白他的思想﹐先要從他的生平開始。… [...]
It is a true story from my friend. Once upon a time (i.e. few years ago) I went to Spain with two friends. When we arrived the hotel the first night we met this weird hotel staff at the lobby whose name tag told us his name was Jesus. I was thinking… [...]
When I was searching for the periodic table of visualization methods, I came across this interesting poster. It mocks the debate between Evolution and Creationism. Almost everyone, except a some Christians, knows life evolutes and human… [...]
